Hello all,
I'm thinning the herd to make room for a new bike for my wife and me. For sale are the following:
WITHDRAWN 1. TWSBI 580RB (Red/Blue) EF: I bought this brand new from TWSBI about 6 weeks ago or so and have used it sparingly since then. I've ended up with a bunch of demonstrators and I'd like to part with this one. It's in like-new condition with the original box and accessories. Nib is a nice, smooth EF. I'm asking $40 for this via PayPal, shipped anywhere in the US.
SOLD!!!! 2. Lamy Studio Stainless EF: I bought this from here, but haven't used it as I just don't care for the grip section on it. The nib is a nice little EF, similar in spec and writing quality to other Lamy EF's. I rather enjoy the nib, actually, but the pen and I just don't get along. I'm asking $40 for this via PayPal, shipped anywhere in the US. Box and Lamy cartridge are included (no converter).
TRADED!!!! 3. Edison Beaumont Pneumatic in Red/Black Ebonite (gold-colored trim) with 0.6mm Italic (steel, duo-tone): I bought this brand new from Edison Pen Co. on January 22 of this year which is my birthday. The pen actually has a very small engraving opposite the branding that says 01/22/14 as a nod to my 30th birthday. For anyone else, it's just the manufacturing/purchase date. :D The nib is a really nice, crisp 0.6mm italic that writes a really nice line with just a bit of variation. I really enjoy the nib, but I don't enjoy the pen. It's just a bit too small for me for daily use. Given that it's "customized" I think that an asking price of $250 is fair (I paid over $400). The nib adjustment alone was like $80 so I think this is pretty fair for an Edison Signature Pen.
SOLD!!!! 4. Sailor Sapporo in Black/Rhodium with 0.8mm Cursive Italic: I just received this pen from a fellow FPGeek member today, but it is much too small for me and the nib is too broad. It's a really, really nice-writing nib and I wish it were more my style, but I just can't see myself using this one at all. I'm asking for $110, which is less than I paid for it and I'll cover shipping and fees. The nib was done by John Mottishaw at Nibs.com and the pen includes the original box, as sold by Nibs.com.
Please PM or email me with questions or offers on these. Photos to come shortly!
Best,
Matthew
